About
Developed over nearly two years from the 2015-2016 Type@Cooper Extended Program in New York, this display serif carries sharp brush-like terminals, delicate serifs and a tall x-height suited to editorial headlines. Six styles span Book, Medium and Demibold with corresponding italics, supported by swash capitals, discretionary ligatures and a 906-glyph set. It has found real-world use with Harper Collins and Magnolia Bakery, pointing toward its comfort in premium editorial and branding contexts.
